Matchday Chat - 22nd-23rd December 2017

[Asura]

Two shite teams providing some entertainment with goals, not bad. 

[Honey Honey]

Have I died and heaven is the 90s?

[The Artful Dodger]

Kick and rush from both sides this.

[Bluewolf]

Bloody hell!! 

Just popped over the shop and come back to 3-2

Just like me to miss all the decent action.. 

[Cicero]

Firmino makes it 3-3

 

What the actual fuck haha 

[Cicero]

Put on Ox to grab the winner!

[The Liquidator]

Wow poor by Pete, but still not the worse attempt of a save in the game.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Well the rest of the festive fixtures have a lot to live up to if they want to be as entertaining, that's for sure.

[The Artful Dodger]

Even if Liverpool get a point or even win this is a bad night for them, they’ve been exposed by an average arsenal side. There’s something rotting inside at the club.

If we get the 3 points it's definitely not a bad night for us. What's rotting at this club is the same thing that's always been rotting for years - central midfield doesn't provide enough protection for the defense, and the defense is prone to lots of individual errors. And our goalkeeping is below average, as proven whenever Mignolet/Karius are tested.

[Bluewolf]

Who is going to get the winner.... its tense!!

FACTS. The team, under klopp, has never really improved.

Last season he got us into the CL? This season he's improved our attack, which is pretty clear because when Mane was missing last year we had a clear lack of pace - now we've got Mane and Salah and it's worse for teams.

He's never improved us defensively, I'll give you that. But to say he's never really improved us is to deny reality. Everyone's forgotten how poor the end of Rodgers' tenure was.

[Cicero]

Ox getting the winner would be mad bantz. 

On he comes 

[Honey Honey]

Remember when Liverpool made Roy Evans jobshare with Gerard Houllier? Maybe something similar would work to solve the defensive issue, perhaps if Klopp jobshares with Pulis 

[Inverted]

Not a bad result for Liverpool but Arsenal have been gifted a draw out of basically nothing.

Haha Klopp's "attack attack" mentality is failing again, what a surprise.

Being attack minded and grabbing a point against their position (top four) rival away from home is probably better than being all in defensive minded and losing 3 points against their title rival at home 

[IgnisExcubitor]

2 points dropped.

Thats not true, Arsenal were a lot better in the second half and I personally feel the draw is deserving. 

[Cicero]

Quality game for the neutral. Great start to the weekend. 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Gomez and Mignolet are getting coal for xmas.

[The Artful Dodger]

Awful result for Liverpool. Arsenal are a waste of time.

[RandoEFC+]

Liverpool a completely superior side to Arsenal but drop points because they (somehow) manage to be more spineless than Arsene Wengers side. For the first time tonight I think that Liverpool can actually defend  actually they're just severely lacking between the ears.

[Rick]

Very disappointed. Those five minutes of madness were fucking horrendous. We are a better team than these lot though, if we don't finish above them it'll be a failure on our behalf.

Klopp has sorted our attack, now he needs to sort out the defence. There's no excuses going forward. 

[6666]

Lovely meltdown from Liverpool after they scored their second. Would've won this if we weren't made to play on Friday after having played midweek. 

[HK85]

Serious investment needed in both of these teams if they want to challenge at the top again. Mainly in defence and the keepers.
